“We’ve booked with Kyla before, and she continues to go above and beyond every time. Leo stayed with another dog during this visit, and she made sure everyone was comfortable and got along great. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches and puts in the extra effort to make them feel safe and loved. Leo came home happy and tired from all the fun. We couldn’t recommend Kyla more and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I'm delighted to be Amber's first review, as this sit was magnificent!! Amber and her family came through for me for a last-minute, same-day holiday (4th of July) booking, and they were great from start to finish! Very friendly, helpful, responsive, and flexible and seemed to attend well to my Sienna -- following my various tips and even going lengths to ensure, with her being an older dog, that she wouldn't be out in the heat during walks for too long and was protected by the outside fireworks that first night! Amber also shared some text and picture updates throughout the stay, and her and her husband for were very reassuring both during drop-off and pickup regarding Sienna's care. They were so great that I ended up extending the sit to an extra day, originally scheduled for just one, and they were very accommodating in my doing so. Sienna seemed to like them well, and I think they liked her -- I definitely would book again whenever we're back in this area again!!”
“Sam and her family did a wonderful job caring for my dog while I was away. They made him feel secure and welcome; he enjoyed his stay there. Sam sent plenty of updates which I appreciated. I will definitely uses Sam’s services again and highly recommend her.”
“I didn't have the pleasure of meeting Whitney but Michael was wonderful (as were their kids). Very quick to respond to all messages and kept me informed of how my pup was doing frequently. He was also very accommodating when our trip got extended by a day. Skylar seemed happy as a clam when we picked her up and told me she'd be happy staying with her new friends any time! We'll be back - highly recommended.”
“Charity did a great job taking care of our mimi aussie doodle. He loved playing in the fenced back yard and playing with Blake. We will be using her service when ever we are back in town.”
“Toby had a thoroughly enjoyable experience with Sonia and the family , and i will definitely recommend Sonia highly and will definitely leave Toby with her on any further trips. sonia was very prompt on sending us daily updates on toby and we were very comfortable with the environment he was in.”
“Monica took great care of our very energetic two year old border collie Lucy this past weekend. Lucy liked Monica right from the start and willing went with her when we dropped her off. Monica took good care of Lucy and returned her to us nice and clean despite the fact that it rained the entire weekend! We would definitely recommend Monica.”
“We joked that with all the attention, love and walks Marty got, we were sure he wouldn’t want to come home! Courtney and her family treated Marty as if he was their own and we received updates and photos of his stay. Will definitely be using her again!!”
“I was completely confident leaving my dog with them. They consistently provided updates with pictures and meal reports, which assured us of their responsible care.”
“Kate did an amazing job taking care of my baby kitten, Bella! She provided frequent updates, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear my kitten was in great hands. Her care and attention to detail were exceptional, and I truly appreciated her reassurance throughout. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Tanvi and her family are amazing – very kind, took great care of my dog, and sent lots of photos every day. I highly recommend her and would definitely leave my dog with her again.”
“Catherine is very responsive, which made the booking process seamless. She is a very pleasant lady and very easy to talk to, our puppy was very comfortable with her from the get go. I had no issues at all i will definitely book her again in the future.”
“Swapna was great. I boarded my dog with her and had no concerns. She provided updates and photos throughout the stay and was also very accommodating. I will be returning to her when I need to board my dog again in the future.”
“I wish I could leave more than five stars. Mairim and her family were beyond fantastic. The care that her and her family put into taking care of your (our) dog is clearly evident. Her place is an oasis for dogs (and people) and she is extremely professional. I highly recommend her…you and your pet will not be disappointed.”
“Really amazing family to leave your pet with! Thank you so much for all you’ve done to help with watching our cat while we were away. Highly recommended, A++++!”
“We wanted to take a trip, but were concerned about leaving our 13 and 15 year old dogs with someone unfamiliar. They have arthritis, one is on several medications, has separation anxiety and both are shy, nervous dogs. Michelle mentioned in her profile that she has a fondness for senior dogs and we decided it would be a good match. We were beyond delighted with the amazing care Michelle and Dan provided our special girls. Michelle stayed in contact several times a day with photos, videos and summaries of their days together. Our dogs were so fond of them, it looked like they didn't want to come home when we came to pick them up. They were too busy kissing Michelle and Dan! 😄 Needless to say, we highly recommend them. They treated our dogs like one of their own and we're certainly going to have them watch our girls again. Thank you so much Michelle and Dan! 💜 🥰”
“Elvis was very happy during the boarding and we kept getting regular updates from our host. It’s very nice to see that they had a lovely place lots of room for roaming, walking, playing. This stuck to our instruction sheet and his time plan. We will be coming back.”
“Elias and his family were great—from the time of pre-booking, he offered annum-home meet and great for us and the dog. He sent lots of pictures which gave additional comfort. Will definitely boo again for future help!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lawrence
My hubby is working in the area. I flew in from GA to visit him, so that we could drive to Canada to celebrate our 10th anniversary. He travels with our dog and we needed a safe home away from home while we travel. Ivelisse was great with our fur baby! Love had just been diagnosed with a UTI and she was very attentive, even giving us helpful recommendations on how to prevent further ones. She sent regular updates and we could tell that Love enjoyed the stay as well. We are thankful that Ivelisse was able to accommodate us on such short notice. Thanks for treating our dog like family! We definitely recommend her and would use her again!
Jolanta was the perfect sitter for our nervous puppy. She has a beautiful home with a fenced backyard, and our puppy loved getting to play with another dog during the stay. Jolanta sent great photos and videos and has such a warm, knowing way with dogs. It was clear our puppy had a wonderful time, and I recommend her with utmost confidence.
Sam is amazing! Our dog has the best time at her house, and we can always tell she is so well cared for and truly treated like part of the family. We get wonderful pictures every day showing our dog happy, exercised, and loved, which gives us so much confidence and peace of mind while we’re away. We’re so grateful to have found Sam - I’m sure our dog Sophie is too!
I highly recommend Darin and McKenna as pet sitter! Our two dogs just spent a week at their place, and it truly felt like they were on their own luxury vacation. From the start, Darin and McKenna were incredibly attentive to every detail and specific need our pups had. They didn’t just "watch" our dogs; they genuinely befriended them and invested a lot of personalized time and affection into making them feel at home. What impressed us most was their dedication during a particularly tough week of heavy snow. Despite the weather challenges, they remained completely unfazed and stayed "up to the task," ensuring our dogs were safe, pampered, and happy throughout the storms. If you are looking for sitters who are responsible, caring, and go the extra mile, Darin and McKenna are the best choice. Our dogs can’t wait to go back!
On a last minute request, Jhonny took care of both my dog and my mom’s dog. He did not require a meet and greet which was extremely helpful as we were kind of in a bind. Ultimately, Jhonny came across as genuinely caring about the animals, and we couldn’t be happier with how our pups came home. It was like they never left. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing experience with Andrea! She was absolutely wonderful with our dog, and it was clear from the start that he felt comfortable and happy with her. She and her family treated him like he was truly part of the crew, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent pictures throughout the day, and in every single one he looked relaxed, loved, and having a great time. I couldn't have asked for better care. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in the area and can't wait to have my dog stay with her again! Thanks, Andrea!!! 🫶
We are SO happy that we found Abby to watch our sweet senior fur baby over a long weekend. Abby was very attentive to our instructions and sent lots of updates every day, which really put us at ease leaving our dog with a new person. Our dog can be a bit timid but she warmed right up to Abby right away — dogs really are an excellent judge of character! Abby was also very flexible when we were facing some unexpected flight delays coming back to town. I highly recommend her and we are looking forward to rebooking with her!
Lauren did a wonderful job with Kobe. He was a rescue as has some social problems. She took such great care of him. She was nice enough to watch him at our house which was a lot to ask of her especially since we needed her for 10 hours. I would recommend Lauren highly and I know if ever I need her again I would hire her. Thanks Lauren for your help.

There are 2,063 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lawrence. About 90% of Lawrence sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
